Thank you to Netgalley and Penguin Group for the e-ARC in exchange for my honest review!
I was immediately drawn to this book by the adorable cover and intriguing premises. This book had me laughing and I felt all of the emotions the FMC, Amy, was feeling, She was lively and relatable and I loved reading about her. The setting of this book was great and the plot was interesting. That being said, I did find myself feeling bored with it at times. I am not sure if that is partially due to the fact that I had read a similar book right before this one. I think Amy and Jake's relationship started off super strong, but by the end I just didn't feel myself rooting for them or really caring what happened. I would still recommend this book and it was a good summer read.

The cover of this book is what initially drew me in. The first few chapters are what locked me in. Although this ended up being more of a self discovery story than romance. I enjoyed it. Overall a good read.

So I'll start by saying romcoms aren't my usual read, but the cover /blub of this had me intrigued, and I'm so glad I gave it a read as I finally got a 5⭐️ read this year! 
The book was funny and heartwarming. It had me laughing and shouting at my kindle! 
I loved Amy and how she grew and found herself again! I loved Jake (hello new book boyfriend!) and I loved to hate Chris! 
The tension between Amy ane Jake we "chefs kiss" This had so many great moments and I seriously need Dry Bones and Trader Town to become actual TV shows! I loved this so much I've added all of Lizzies other books to my TBR
